‘Tis the season for Christmas cheer, and apart from bedecking your tree out with tinsel and ornaments and cozying up with a cup of hot cocoa and a festive film, there’s no better way to get into the spirit than with a great holiday cocktail. This year, we’ll be throwing back more than just spiked eggnog, however, as Art of Sucre has just released a new, seasonal line of its TikTok-famous cotton candy glitter bombs that will take your Christmas fêtes to a whole other level.
What, you may ask, is a cotton candy glitter bomb? Essentially, it’s a little ball of (what else?) cotton candy that you place in your drink of choice (we’re partial to bubbly) to give it the kind of “wow” factor that will have your party-goers squealing in delight. To use them, simply pour your alcohol (or juice, if you’re more of a mocktail kind of person) into a glass, add your “bomb” and give it a quick swirl. Within seconds, your beverage will be transformed from an average, run-of-the-mill cocktail (boo) into a sparkly, shimmering libation of pure wonderment—see for yourself in the video below.
The best part? All the glitz in your glass is completely edible—just the way that founder Emily Harpel, who was inspired to create her own line of uniquely flavored cotton candy while planning for her wedding, intended it to be.
While these ‘Gram-ready treats have been blowing up on social media for some time now, this new collection (which consists of an Advent calendar, seasonal cotton candy flavors, hot chocolate bombs and two *extra* special glitter bombs) just may be the best yet. Keep reading to revel in all the holiday magic Art of Sucre has to offer.
They’ll be no denying which of Santa’s lists you made this year—this four-pack of glitter bombs will turn green if you’ve been good when you drop it into your cocktail. And if it turns red? Gulp—it’s the naughty list for you!
We can’t think of a more fitting way to greet the new year than with a blast of glitter, and that’s exactly what you’ll find in this set of bombs featuring edible gold, silver and black and white flecks. The latter also has an extra-special surprise in the form of tiny gold stars. Ooo la la!
If you thought you’d seen it all after the glitter bomb, hold on to your seats for the company’s latest sleight of hand: the hot chocolate bomb. Pop one of these candy cane-flavored dreams into a cup of your favorite cocoa and watch it explode into a cluster of marshmallows in a manner that will truly make you believe in Christmas miracles.
At the center of Art of Sucre is good, old-fashioned cotton candy—and the holiday line has five mouthwatering Christmas flavors—Cut-Out Cookie, Hot Chocolate, Candy Cane, Cinnamon Bun and Frosted Sugarplum—that are meant to taste just like Yuletide. And that’s not all—there’s also a strawberry champagne flavored option to help you ring in the New Year.
Can’t choose a favorite flavor? With options like the above up for grabs, who could ever blame you? Luckily, you won’t have to, because the new 12 Days of Cotton Candy Advent calendar has a dozen unique "mystery" sweets that will have your taste buds dancing the Mamba. (Are you drooling yet? We’re totally drooling.)
